I mentioned the engine change right before your history lesson. I'm sorry I did not mention it earlier in the conversation. I knew the engine was replaced but only recently figured out the engine was not same as original. I thought both were SL1 engines. The manual mentions the different digit in the VIN (7 vs 8 in the 8th digit) to differentiate DOHC vs SOHC, and MFI vs TBI. It is definitely a twin can engine (says it on valve cover) in a body that is a 1996 SOHC MFI according to the VIN.
